Animal Outreach of the Mother Lode
A Legacy of Compassion
Since 1992, Animal Outreach of the Mother Lode has been dedicated to improving the lives of animals and the people who care for them. Our mission is to provide a safe haven for shelter animals, promote responsible pet ownership, and eliminate pet overpopulation through affordable spay, neuter, and vaccination services.
Building Brighter Futures
Based in Diamond Springs, California, we serve the El Dorado, Sacramento, and Placer Counties with a commitment to creating a more humane community. We are currently growing to meet the need, developing a new shelter twice the size of our current facility to expand our medical and surgical capabilities.
Our Care Model
We believe every animal deserves a chance to heal, thrive, and find a loving home. Through a dedicated network of staff and volunteers, we provide rescue, foster care, and adoption services, alongside professional veterinary care. Our approach ensures that each animal receives the medical treatment, social attention, and time needed to prepare them for their forever families.
Finding Your Perfect Companion
Adoption is a joyful partnership, and we take pride in helping you find your new best friend. By providing a transparent look at each pet’s needs, we ensure a successful match that brings happiness to both you and your adopted pet. We celebrate each adoption as a milestone in our goal to save more lives and keep pets with the families who love them.
